Biden Is Guilty Of Child Abuse On A Massive Scale, And Nobody Cares

“The U.S. lost track of 1,475 immigrant children last year. Here’s why people are outraged now.” 

That was a Washington Post headline from May 2018, one of many such pronouncements in nearly every mainstream news outlet – all decrying these missing children as evidence of the “cruelty” and “inhumanity” of President Donald Trump’s border security policies. 

“It’s just wrong. It’s wrong,” Joe Biden said at one point. “Cruelty is the point. It’s their only point.” 

But under President Biden’s allegedly more humane border security policies, the federal government has lost track of 85,000 children who crossed the border unaccompanied by their parents. Worse, many of them ended up in the hands of traffickers, not family or friends.

 

The scale is far bigger today because the number of children crossing the border has exploded under Biden. Since he took office, border agents have “encountered” more than 354,000 unaccompanied minors. In just the past six months, the number exceeds 71,000, which is twice what it was in all of 2020. 

The response from the press? Crickets. For example, the Washington Post isn’t outraged at all. In fact, the only mention of the 85,000 figure so far has been in a commentary by brain-dead columnist Greg Sargent, who used it as an excuse to attack Republicans.
